Proximal "Tube" Realignment of the Patella for Chondromalacia Patellae

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1979
In young people complaining of patellar pain there is often an anatomic basis (an increased quadriceps angle or a high-riding patella). Forty-eight knees with one or other of these abnormalities underwent proximal quadriceps realignment. The results were excellent or good in 94%. Shaving of chondromalacic cartilage was also done in 11 knees but did not
